Profile Scapular Medal SS 24IN Chain

St. Patrick's Guild is excited to offer this handsome, sterling ssilver scapular medal. It hangs on a 24 inch chain which is the perfect length for teenage boys and adult men. If you need a medal scapular on an 18 inch chain, perfect for teenage girls or adult women, please see item #88993 to check it out. The striking profile of the Sacred Heart image of Jesus on our scapular would make a superb addition to your devotional life. The backside of the scapular is, of course, Our Lady of Mount Carmel. This scapular would be a special gift for your loved one's First Communion, Ordination, or the sacraments of Reconciliation or Confirmation. The scapular medal replicates the cloth that the Benedictine order wore on their front and back shoulders representing the 'yoke of Christ'. Gradually, the pieces of cloth were reduced to what we are more familiar with today. Since 1910, however, the medal form of the scapular was approved and has been in use ever since. Remember to have your medal blessed by a priest before using it as part of your devotional practice.
